st. James Gazette: A man dying OF
trichinosia inspires, like every unfor-
tunate wretch,a certain degree of pity.
But, judged on moral grounds, he can
scarcely be placed on higher level
than the man dying of delirium tre-
mems; and, as IA matter of fact, better
men have died of the insidiOus alcohol

fest the flesh of pigs, What there can
be so seductive in portland raw pork,
above all-that sensible people, as Ger
mans in general must surely be con-
sdered, should devour il uncooked and
uncured, it is hard indeed to imagine.
The Germans, however, are SO much
addicted to this kind of food that whole
families, whole populations, will some
times fall i'll from morbid indulgencies
in it; and it is reported from Hamburg,
where raw pork is consumed (by the
inhabitants) in dangerously large
quantities, that on Sunday night, in
one family alone, nine persons were
suffering from trichinosis.
The origin of trichinosis has been
fantastica'y traced to a certain herd OF
swine, n, Ill of which Gran down a

duces in those who eat of it the disease
now affecting the inhabitants of Ham,
burg, where a ''severe outbreak" of it
is said to have taken place, are named
'trichinm. They can be driven out
by fire, which proves that there is
nothing essentially diabolical in their
nature. But the Germans, who refuse
to cook their ham, do not think il
worth while to eXpel them.

Women in Public Life.

Women in politics have always been
more or less conspicuous in this coun-
try. Perhaps of late years they have
become more noticeable in this respect.
The history of Andrew Jackson's Adj
ministration is proof of how much
trouble between political friends can be
caused sometimes innocently by a
woman's personality. Kate Chase
Sprague was at one time q power in
Washington, before whom great states
men bowed. and she was the support
upon which her father leaned during
all the years when he toiled upwards
with longing eyes towards the Presi-
dency which he never reached. John
A. Logah's wife, with her bright face
and white hair, outlined against the
dark, burly personality of her husband
will always be a remembered figure in
National politics. Had he lived she
would have continued her ceaseless
struggle to make him President and
she would have kept up her unchang-
ing custom of finding new friends daily
for her husband among the politicians
visiting Washing tOn. Mrs. Hayes made
herself quite a conspicuous character
during her husbands term of office,
and though she was modest, shrink
ing little woman, who had no love for
public affairs, she was credited with
managing good part of the Govern
ment business for her easy-going hus-
band. These are only few instances
out of the hundreds where women have
within the last few years impressed
their personality on political affairs in
this country. If the full truth were
written about the history of legislation
in Washington it might be amazing to
note how much of women's influence
and women's work run through the
whole network of our National affairs
and Governmept.-NetU YoTk Graphic

AnUnloveIy Character

An experience with woman who
makes life burden TO everybody about
her by her relentless insistence on con-
tinual flattery as the price Of peace in
her house is thus discussed by the New
York Graphic: She has painful doubt
as TO whether she is the most lOvahle
being on the globe. She insists that
everyone who comes within range shall
contribute to strengthen her wavering
conviction on this point. Any CONVERSE
ton in her presence that does not feed

EDUCATING COLTS.
A Work for which the Winter Months
Afford Ample Opportunity.

Afford Ample Opportunity.
The earlier the training of the horse
begins, the easier it is accomplished
and the more thoroughly the lessons
are learned. There is, of course. a
difference in the intelligence possessed
by horses. just as there is i'll people.
and some colts learn much faster than
others, but ut the same time the readi-
ness with which they learn what is
wanted Of them depends. in great
measure, upon the skill and methods
oft he man who does the training In
careful, patient hands a high melted
colt may be trained so that he can be
safely trusted urder almost any cir
Gums anccs, while a man who is care
less and without discretion ruins him
As rule. not enough attention is
given to accustoming the colt to sights
and sounds that he may be influenced
by when put to work. Especially is
this the case on the farm, where the
''breaking" Of the young horse to har-
ness is put off until he is old enough to
be put 10 WORK. and rs soon as he has
learned 10 go a ong quietly his educa-
ton is considered completed. When
such horse l.. sold to go to a town or
large city, the surroundings are so
different rom what he has been
familiar with on the farm. that he is
constantly being frightened and can not
be regarded safe horse, either for
driving purposes or slow work.
A different method of training would
have made him quite different. He
should be taught while yet in the barn
on the farm, to allow the dangling of
harness. etc. about his heels. and then
in case, when on the road. some acci-
dent happens which brings the whifll =
tree or the vehicle against him, he viii
not be so apt to become frightened and
run away. 1t is good plan to bear
in mind what may be his surroundings
when he leaves the farm. and prepare
him for these by carefully bringing
him in contact with untoward sights
and sounds until he learns that no
harm need be feared from them. While
doing this, however. great caution
should be used that the colt does not
become frightened and get away. The
winter months afford an opportunity
for this work. when there is frequently
time that may be devoted TO it without
interfering with duties that. during
other seasons of the year. demand so
much time. National Livc- Stock Jour

THE OPIUM Haeir.
The Most Affect OF slaveries-Is There
ANY EmaneipatOr?


The New York papers lately published
very pathetic story about a very popular
emotional actress. 1t was to the effect that
she had become q confirmed victim OF the
opium habit, involving an almost total loss
II physical and mental powers, and actual
restitution.
The story was at once denied by her
friends, who say she has suffered simply
from nervous prostration, Is in no need OF
pecuniary aid. and Is on the way TO speedy
recovery.
Opium victims are usually hopeless, help
less slaves, mind weakened, lacking energy
for any effort toward recovery, rapidly
drifting into imbecility and untimely
graves.
A peculiar feature is that victims crafty
conceal 1t from their nearest friends. A
young lady at school near Philadelphia was

This voluntary statement goes TO confirm
the claim made by the proprietors of War
ner's safe cure, that it Is the only remedy in
the world which has any decided power over
diseases Of the kidneys and liver, and that
this terrible habit can not be cured until
these organs have first been restored to full
health, because they are the ones chiefly az
fected by this drug.

CURED by long use in painful malady,
with Warmers safe cure. 1t can not be
cured at all if the kidneys and liver are dis
eased.
1t is not claimed that there Is any thing
In Warmers safe cure dtoRe which will do
away with the habit, except that it puts the
kidneys and liver in healthy condition,
giving the whole system that strength and
tone without which any attempt to throw
off the habit would be vain.
1t is because physicians have discovered
that nc other remedy is so beneficial in re
storing health 10 the liver, kidneys and gen
eral system as the one stated that 1t has
come into general use in connection with
the special remedies for the cure of the
dreadful opium habit:
Ono of the worst features OF the opium
habit is the deadening of mental and mora
sensibiites in proportion as it weakens The
physical system and the will power.
